The Sword

(Edward McBride)

These lyrics may go back in time, but have we really made progress as a civil society. The white owners, and bosses of the U.S. Southern states abused black slaves at will on their Plantations. One owner crossed the line one too many times and got what was coming to him.

It's a crazy old day It's a lazy old day laying on the couch being such a grouch dog at my feet dreaming of a bone the wife is going to town Chorus Live by the sword die by the sword Don't cry when it is over You take a life you lose your own Black lives really matter Yes, black lives really matter The cotton pickings over the slaves are going away I keep the maid Lucinda she gives me what I want My wife is none the wiser Chorus Live by the sword die by the sword Don't cry when it is over You take a life you lose your own Black lives really matter Yes, black lives really matter She is now with child let's go for a ride I shoot the negro girl The slaves have had enough my wife is at the window they hang me from a tree they cut my penis off before the noose is tightened Chorus Live by the sword die by the sword Don't cry when it is over You take a life you lose your own Black lives really matter Yes, black lives really matter

A controversial subject for sure. The rights of a convicted Paedophile now released back into the community and they must be informed that he has moved into their neighborhood.Pedophilia disorder is a psychosexual disorder, generally affecting adults, characterized by sexual interest in prepubescent children. The science says you are born with it and it is core just like any other sexual orientation. Try telling that to the parents.

Frei sein - ohne Angst

By AQUABA


Dies ist ein besinnlicher Text, Angst vor dem Lebenskampf der oft schwer ist und Prüfungen auferlegt, wenn uns das bisher gewohnte Leben aus der Bahn wirft Die Beziehung beginnt zu wanken, weil die Kraft zum Kämpfen fehlt, doch gerade in schweren Zeiten ist Liebe und Verständnis füreinander der größte Halt um sich nicht zu verlieren.

Der Ruf

By Ulrich Bergau


Er wird laut, als die Menschheit die Gefahr spürt, die in dem Hilferuf nach Liebe und Freiheit, eine überirdische Hilfe sucht, die in der Kraft Gottes liegt. Dieser Text passt genau auf den Song »Sound of Silence«, in der Version von Disturbed. Der Text ist keine Übersetzung und hat nichts mit dem Originaltext zu tun. Bei eigenständiger Komposition bitte die Urheberrechte beachten.

I want more

By Jordan Lewis


This song is a self reflection of man and how he yearns for someone better than himself because deep inside he knows there's a savagery that lingers on no matter how much there is in life

The Outcast

By Marquis Smith


"The Outcast" details a person who knew someone that committed suicide by gunshot to the head. The character feels a mixture of hurt, contempt, and sadness for the person that chose this course of action. This person is disgusted yet recalls the loved one's distant behavior toward the end. Not really a rhyme scheme here. I wrote this awhile back listening bands like Lamb of God. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Groove metal/ Metal.
